Di Fengyi continued to report: "The Space City Plan is also progressing smoothly. Although the space elevator has not been built yet, a large amount of building materials have been transported to low-Earth orbit, and the initial construction has begun.

"This plan is the most important thing for our country because we need two space stations as platforms for building space cities, and the International Space Station was scrapped three years ago.

"Since the International Space Station is jointly built by multiple countries, it is very difficult to build a new one. The space station design of the United States and Russia in the last century has long been out of date. At present, my country is the only country that has mastered the independent construction of a new space station."

Jiang Yu nodded. The disadvantages of the International Space Station had already appeared ten years ago.

"The Sun Kingdom Operation was not too smooth," Di Fengyi said: "It was not that I encountered technical difficulties, but that the whole world believed that this was a kind of escape.

“Many marchs broke out around the world, and there were opposition to continue launching probes into space.

"Some opponents said that after Jupiter established a forward base, an interstellar spacecraft called Ark would fly to other galaxies with a large number of human fertilized eggs, DNA from various animals and plants.

"The few crew members on the spacecraft have been carefully selected. They will start the second round of human civilization in distant galaxies.

"People on the earth knew that when they ran away, they could no longer catch up."

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Did they say that the PDC determines escapism is illegal, just to secretly carry out escape plans?"

Di Fengyi was stunned: "Someone has really expressed similar views."

Jiang Yu frowned: "PDC is really as enlightened as they say."

Then he waved his hand: "You keep talking."

Di Fengyi continued: "And it is said that the staff of the 'Sun Country Action' project team are not very motivated.

“Because so far, no one wants to go to Mars or Jupiter’s moons, even if they explore it, it doesn’t make sense.

"People believe that in the future these places will be the frontline of war, and humans will be out of protection and will not be able to survive.

"Another mainstream concept now is that exploring these places will likely be placed there as outposts and will never be able to return to Earth."

Jiang Yu sighed: "If there is an outpost there, we might as well not resist. The Three-Body Stars will reach the earth with a throttle."

Di Fengyi grinned at Jiang Yu's metaphor, but he couldn't laugh immediately.

Yes, if Jupiter is an outpost, the human front will be too short.

Jiang Yu looked at the view that was moving back quickly outside the car window: "Humans will not be destroyed by invaders, they will only lock themselves up!"

He tapped his hands on his knees and suddenly had a bold idea!

Jiang Yu thought about it carefully in his mind and decided to find an opportunity to ask experts in aerospace for the feasibility of his secret plan.

However, this plan cannot be implemented in a hurry, and you must be fully prepared before taking action.

Jiang Yu slept very well that night, which seemed to be a benefit of waking up from hibernation. No matter how worried he was, he lay down and woke up naturally as soon as he fell asleep.

After nurturing his spirit, Jiang Yu took a car and went to the desert test field more than 200 kilometers away with Qi Guanglu.

The people who protected Jiang Yu and the scientific researchers accompanied him, together, formed a long convoy. From a distance, you can see the convoy moving forward like a long black snake.

After more than two hours' drive, the convoy arrived at a small desert.

I was still some distance away from the experimental field and saw a dazzling green in the desert.

Qi Guanglu introduced: "This experimental field is the latest achievement of the first group, which uses a mutated mold to form a small ecological cycle with wheat."

When we arrived near the test field, it was already late in spring that the wheat had just started to grow its poles.

If they were planted on plains, the growth of these wheats would be too bad, but in the yellow desert, they were as dazzling as gems.

A scientific researcher took a shovel and, under the instruction of Qi Guanglu, dug down from the wheat field a few times.

At the beginning, it was just yellow sand. After digging more than ten centimeters, I saw that the sand began to turn black.

Qi Guanglu squatted beside the pit and introduced: "Look, this is the mold codenamed T1-68.

"Generally speaking, microorganisms like to live in humid and dark places, but there are also microorganisms in dry and hot deserts, but they are very small in number.

"The black mold we see is a product that hybridizes to mold with a microorganism in the desert and undergoes mutation under radiation.

“They like calories so they are so comfortable for them to hide in a desert that is over ten centimeters.

"Their activities will retain moisture, and you can see that as long as T1-68 is dug, the sand will not be as dry as the surface.

"If you continue digging down, you can see more T1-68, and the sand will become wetter."

Jiang Yu nodded with relief. Under the sand which was more than ten centimeters, it did look a little wet.

The staff dug up sand far from the wheat field without mold, and dug up twenty or thirty centimeters, from above to below.

Digging down further makes it look a little moisture.

It can be seen that this mold has a very important effect.

Qi Guanglu continued to introduce: "The wheat you see is also a new variety with very developed root systems.

"Generally speaking, the wheat root system that is visible to our naked eyes is only ten centimeters in length.

"But the root system of this kind of wheat can reach 30 cm, and it can completely penetrate the survival area of ​​T1-68.

"There is no visible to the naked eye, and the wheat roots that can only be seen under a microscope will reach about two meters.

"So this wheat develops its root system throughout winter and spring, and only starts to grow in summer, and currently only harvests one season a year.

"After the death of wheat, its root system will become a nutrient for T1-68.

"This small ecological circulation system uses only half of the original desert wheat moisture and fertilizer, which is the optimal solution for desert agriculture we have discovered at present!"

Jiang Yu took the lead in applauding. In terms of desert agriculture, this is definitely a huge breakthrough!

After accepting everyone's applause, Qi Guanglu said a little embarrassedly: "Don't be busy applauding for now, I haven't introduced its shortcomings yet."

Everyone smiled and continued to listen to Qi Guanglu's speech.

Qi Guanglu said again: "The disadvantage of this small ecological circulation system is that T1-68 requires a certain cultivation cost.

“But after planting for a year, there is this microorganism in the sand and there is no need to continue adding it.

"In addition, we still need to solve the problem of water, but there is no need to add adhesive, and the demand for water is half smaller."
